Where the Mexican revolutionary hero Emiliano Zapata was killed
Cuautla is a city in the state of Morelos that seems to have a combi that goes anywhere
Conoce el Santuario de los Girasoles en Balancan Tabasco Mexico
Lo que nació como un proyecto piloto para la producción de aceite comestible, hoy se ha convertido en una joya turística en el municipio de Balancán, Tabasco.
Es el primer santuario de girasoles en nuestro país, que tiene un área de seis hectáreas por las que puedes caminar mientras recolectas los girasoles que deseas comprar.
Dondequiera que mires, el amarillo de las flores te deslumbra. El santuario incluso ofrece sesiones de fotos entre los cultivos.
El Santuaro de Girasoles de Balancán solo se abre al público durante la temporada de floración, que ocurre una vez al año: aproximadamente del 13 al 28 de abri. El espectáculo de ver los girasoles en su máximo esplendor dura aproximadamente 20 días.
Durante tuu visita, aprovecha la oportunidad de visitar el área de artesanías y gastronomía.
Cuando el calendario marca el 21 de marzo, en el Santuario de los Girasoles, en Tabasco, comienza la etapa de floración y el lugar estará listo todos los días de la semana para que puedas tomar fotos y visitar un campo de más de seis hectáreas (no hay recorridos guiados, tu caminas por tu cuenta) lleno de enormes girasoles.
El santuario no tiene muchos recursos, por lo que encontrarás una tienda de recuerdos con camisetas, tazas y recuerdos de girasoles, cuya venta ayuda a cubrir los gastos de operación.
También tienen un corredor gastronómico y artesanal con la venta de productos de la región.
Si deseas una sesión de fotos profesional, en la página de Facebook puede contactar a su fotógrafo (hay un número de WhatsApp) para programar la sesión.
Recuerda que hay muy pocos días en que el Santuario de los Girasoles en Tabasco está abierto al público para que así aproveches en anticipar tu contratación de la sesión fotográfica.
COSTOS Y HORARIOS
El santuario está abierto de 9 a.m. a 6 p.m. La admisión es gratuita. El precio de una docena de girasoles ronda los 50 pesos. ($ 2.5 USD)
DONDE SE ENCUENTRA EL SANTUARIO
El Santuario de los Girasoles se encuentra a ocho kilómetros antes de llegar a Balancán, en la carretera Emiliano Zapata-Tenosique, a dos horas y media de Villahermosa.
CURIOSIDADES SOBRE LOS GIRASOLES: ¡VISITA EL SANTUARIO DE LA GIRASOL EN TABASCO!
Desde la mañana los girasoles giran siguiendo la luz del sol.
No todas las flores son amarillas, hay algunas versiones en naranja, marrón, crema y rojo oscuro.
Los girasoles deben cortarse por la mañana para que no se marchiten tan rápido.
Se dice que los girasoles absorben la radiación nuclear.
La celulosa se puede obtener de viejos tallos de girasol para hacer papel.

Best Puerto Vallarta Hotels (starting at $34/night)!
Showing you my 4 favorite Puerto Vallarta hotels, several of which are perfect for those on a budget! One of the hotels was $34 per night! In my opinion each of these hotels are the best places to stay in the Zona Romantica and Centro areas of Puerto Vallarta.
For each hotel, I will give you a room tour, show you the amenities, talk about the location and let you know if there are any downsides to the hotel. Each is a small, boutique hotel, perfect for soaking up the authentic feel of PV.
These hotels are great alternatives to an all inclusive resort in Puerto Vallarta if you're looking to try something new. Also great for solo travelers, budget-conscious and those on a honeymoon or couples vacation.
They all have pools, A/C and are centrally located - walking distance to the beach, malecon and restaurants and bars. Some of these hotels are adult only, feature rooftop infinity pools and serve a daily hot breakfast.

Haciendas de Morelos | Haciendas en México | Parte 1
En México, sin importar el lugar que decidamos visitar, nos encontraremos con destinos de grandes historias. Somos el producto de una conquista, hijos de una mezcla de razas y herederos de creencias variadas.
Para bien o para mal, nuestra historia quedó marcada con la llegada de los españoles. De estos conquistadores heredamos diversas construcciones que quedaron impregnadas con el sudor y la sangre de los indígenas, entre ellas las haciendas.
Etiquetas de Tiempo:
1) Intro - 00:00
2)Hacienda de Cortés - 00:05
3) Hacienda de Cocoyoc - 02:38
4) Hacienda San Antonio el Puente - 06:26
5) Hacienda de Temixco - 10:35
6) Outro - 12:43
En el estado de Morelos existe una bella ruta que alberga un importante número de haciendas concebidas para la producción de azúcar.
La historia de éstas se remonta a la llegada de Hernán Cortés, responsable de introducir la caña de azúcar en México.
Tras la conquista, el Rey Carlos I de España le otorgó a Cortés el título de Marqués del Valle de Oaxaca, con lo que le dio una gran extensión de tierra y, por lo tanto, poder sobre otros pueblos.
En Morelos, fundó los primeros ingenios que eran haciendas en las que se procesaba la caña de azúcar para producir sobre todo azúcar y alcohol.
El clima cálido de la región permitió que la industria azucarera floreciera y mientras la Corona Española obtenía grandes ingresos, los indígenas eran explotados para trabajar en ellas.
El trabajo era tan pesado en algunas de ellas que Cortés utilizó esclavos provenientes de las Antillas, como fue el caso de la Hacienda de San Antonio Atlacomulco.
Estas haciendas presenciaron eventos importantes e incluso desencadenaron el levantamiento de los campesinos liderados por Emiliano Zapata durante la Revolución Mexicana, pues el revolucionario sostenía que las tierras debían ser restituidas a los campesinos a los que se las habían arrebatado.
Muchas de estas haciendas se convirtieron en cuarteles durante la revolución, fueron deterioradas y algunas abandonadas. Otras han sido recuperadas y hoy funcionan como hoteles de lujo.

From Wikipedia:
The Monument to the Revolution (Spanish: Monumento a la Revolución) is a landmark and monument commemorating the Mexican Revolution. It is located in the Plaza de la República, near to the heart of the major thoroughfares Paseo de la Reforma and Avenida de los Insurgentes in downtown Mexico City.
The building was initially planned as the Palacio Legislativo Federal (Federal Legislative Palace) during the regime of president Porfirio Díaz and was intended as the unequaled monument to Porfirian glory. The building would hold the congressional chambers of the deputies and senators, but the project was not finished due to the Mexican Revolutionary War. Twenty-five years later, the structure was converted into a monument to the Mexican Revolution by Mexican architect Carlos Obregón Santacilia. The monument is considered the tallest triumphal arch in the world, standing 67 metres (220 ft) in height. Porfirio Díaz appointed a French architect, Émile Bénard to design and construct the palace, a neoclassical design with characteristic touches of the French renaissance, showing government officials' aim to demonstrate Mexico's rightful place as an advanced nation. Díaz laid the first stone in 1910 during the centennial celebrations of Independence, when Díaz also inaugurated the Monument to Mexican Independence (The Angel of Independence). The internal structure was made of iron, and rather than using local Mexican materials in the stone façade, the design called for Italian marble and Norwegian granite.
Although the Díaz regime was ousted in May 1911, President Francisco I. Madero continued the project until his murder in 1913. After Madero's death, the project was cancelled and abandoned for more than twenty years. The structure remained unfinished until 1938, being completed during the presidency of Lázaro Cárdenas.
The Mexican architect Carlos Obregón Santacilia proposed converting the abandoned structure into a monument to the heroes of the Mexican Revolution. After this was approved, the structure began its eclectic Art Deco and Mexican socialist realism conversion, building over the existing cupola structure of the Palacio Legislativo Federal (Federal Legislative Palace). Mexican sculptor Oliverio Martínez designed four stone sculpture groups for the monument, with Francisco Zúñiga as one of his assistants.
The structure also functions as a mausoleum for the heroes of the Mexican Revolution of 1910, Francisco I. Madero, Francisco Pancho Villa, Venustiano Carranza, Plutarco Elías Calles, and Lázaro Cárdenas. Revolutionary general Emiliano Zapata is not buried in the monument, but rather in Cuautla, Morelos. The Zapata family has resisted the Mexican government's efforts to relocate Zapata's remains to the monument.
